Ingredients
- 1 package organic fingerling potatoes
- 1 tbsp cooking oil (I love Chosen Foods Avocado Oil Spray)
- 1/4 tsp favorite seasoning (I recommend Primal Palate’s Adobo Seasoning or Meat and Potatoes seasoning)
- 1 tsp parsley
Recipe Description
These paleo crispy smashed potatoes are as rich in flavor as they are crispy, and are the perfect gluten – free side to any Whole 30 meal plan or just to serve as a side at parties!
If you are going to store this in the refrigerator, make sure they are completely cooled first. That way they won’t be soggy.
Recipe Directions
- For the microwave: Place the potatoes in a wet paper towel. Place the potatoes on a plate, and microwave on high for 5 – 7 minutes depending on the size of the potatoes. Make sure you can easily pierce the potatoes with a fork to make sure they are done. Let them cool completely before smashing.
- For the oven: Pre heat the oven to 445. Place the potatoes on a cooking sheet, and cover with cooking oil. Pierce each of the potatoes for a little extra help with the venting. Place in the oven for 30 minutes, or until the potatoes can be easily pierced with a fork. Let them cool before smashing.
- Cover a small frying pan in cooking oil and pre-heat on low.
- Using a large spatula, smash each of the potatoes until they are flattened but not completely broken.
- Place the smashed potatoes on the pre heated frying pan. Season the potatoes with your seasoning of choice.
- Cook each potato in the frying pan on each side for two minutes.
- Add garnishes if desired or dressing and enjoy.
